<p>Got a late start and did a lap of Ursus trees. We only saw two other groups near the top. The wind gusts were strong to extreme from the SW and seemed to become stronger as the afternoon progressed. Tons of snow transport. We didn’t notice any natural activity but heard later there was a Size 2 natural off Cheops N1. The snow in Ursus was very deep but felt upside down and unsupported - we were breaking through to a softer layer as we descended</p>
